USA National Team Thread

Is Klinsmann experimenting? I haven't heard half of those players.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Great time to experiment. What a fucking n00b. I knew it would be a disaster when he got hired.

 

[ARIAGA II]

In his defense Torres, Spector and Chandler are all injured. I don't understand why he likes Beckerman so much, he hasn't been good enough since 2009. The team does look strong enough to take on Costa Rica.

Too much FM?

Projected defense:

LB: Beasley/Shea (seriously)
CB: Edu/Goodson
CB: Omar
RB: Cameron

We'll have to agree to disagree.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Dempsey is the captain. Should have been Bradley.

 

[MaestroZidane]

Looking forward to the WC qualifier, it's really do or die for this NT. If we win, I will scream from the top of my lungs.

 

[Bobby]

Look at that random ass back four.

 

[MaestroZidane]

Go Mexico.....

When is Oguchi Onyewu going to be considered as a lock for one of the CB positions?

With his size, it always puzzles me why he isn't a Sol Campbell type CB - you know, the rock in the heart of the England defense. The guy has the size and experience....he's 30, now is the time for him.

 

[Back Door Skip]

I think he's a shell of his former self since the injury.

He's sucked for 4 years bro. Ever since he ruptured his patellar tendon in one of the last qualifying matches at the end of 2009 he hasn't been the same. Trust me, he would be playing if he was even close to his former self. It's a real shame, because he absolutely was the best defender of his generation and we're clearly missing him.

 

[MaestroZidane]

He had great potential, shame he got injured.

Big game today, a win at the Azteca would be monumental and give us the advantage we need.

[Back Door Skip]

What a smug bastard!

 

[MaestroZidane]

He called it!

 

[Arnau]

Like a boss

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Joke's on him, it took 5 and a half years.

Initially, I was gonna make a similar joke but I'd just sound bitter.

 

[Banu22elos]

Bring in Convey and Dempsey to liven things up a little.
